This course is suitable for intermediate to experienced ECE teachers and leaders.
This in depth online course is designed to support effective internal evaluation of practice using Te Ara Poutama as a key frame of reference. Following an introduction and overview of internal evaluation in module one, the remainder of the course steps participants through each phase of an internal evaluation cycle in turn.

You will gain understanding of and confidence in implementing effective evaluation of practice that meets the expectations of external evaluators (ERO). A template for documenting your evaluation is also provided.

  • You want a clear framework for internal evaluation (including a template for documenting the process).
  • You want to know how to use Te Ara Poutama within internal evaluation.
  • You want to learn how to structure data informed, evidence based decision-making.
  • You want to build your confidence that you are meeting ERO’s expectations for effective evaluation.

It has been great to hear about how to integrate all the new ERO documents/resources and how they relate to our current system and process. It has become clearer what is now expected by ERO which has helped me think about the tweaks needed - Wonderful thanks!

Another very enjoyable PLD with Barbara that is full of lots of knowledge and information. It has given me a deeper understanding internal evaluation so that I can guide my team through. I am excited to get started on strengthening our internal evaluation processes with our new internal evaluation.
